(By our Staff Correspondent) SUNDAY, July 31st, 1927, saw the eighth annual obsery- ance of the day consecrated each year by the people of Keewatin to pay homage to the memory of her sons who gave their lives for freedom in the greatest war of all time. Shortly after noon, in accordance with arrangements made by the Keewatin Branch of the British Empire Service League, townspeople and visitors began to as- semble at the, Memorial Building, around which the ceremonies appropriately centred. At the familiar call of the bugle the men who stood shoulder to shoulder on the battle-fields of Flanders and pondered the constant additions to the number of historic mounds on which the flaming poppies blow; fell in around the flagpole carrying the Union Jack at half-mast. There, while the Dead March stirred their deepest emotions, they stood rigidly to attention while two young girls placed the Memorial Wreath at the base of the Mounment bearing the honoured names of comrades to whose memory they had come to pay respect. 2% But the most poignant scene was at the gripping moment when the thrilling notes of The Last Post floated out across the stillness, and strong men stood tense while the scorching flame of memory seared their inmost souls. Tater a large party proceeded to the Lake of the Woods Cemetery, to decorate the graves of comrades whom they pledged to keep in sacred remembrance, one. This concluded ths meeting, each went home well satisfied: Our next will be held at the home of Mrs Besups, September 1st, everybody welcom® Kaocked down by Car-- While attempting to cut across a corner as he was riding a bicycle, Arth- ur Rhodes was knoocked down by a Chevrolet touring car, driven by Mrs James Hutchison, about five o'clock on Wednesday afternoon.
